Is it a big deal to have taken it a day early or does it make a difference? Thanks a lot! :)

Hello, I am taking cleo 35 as a contraceptive. During my "break" time (the 7 days without taking a pill) I miscalculated and took it one day too early. I don't know if it's important to mention that I have polycystic ovary syndrome.

Hello,
When you are in your hormone-free period (stop or pause period), you keep the protection of your contraceptive as long as this period does not exceed 7 days.
Therefore, in your situation, the fact that you started your contraception one day earlier, on the 6th day, has no impact. The recommended stopping period is 4 to 7 days.
I hope that I have answered your question correctly,
